In an attempt to phase out the std::num::strconv module's string formatting
functionality, this commit reimplements some provided methods for formatting
integers on top of format!() instead of the custom (and slower) implementation
inside of num::strconv.
Primarily, this deprecates int_to_str_bytes_common
This implements all traits inside of core::num for all the primitive types,
removing all the functionality from libstd. The std modules reexport all of the
necessary items from the core modules.
The patch adds a `pow` function for types implementing `One`, `Mul` and
`Clone` trait.
The patch also renames f32 and f64 pow into powf in order to still have
a way to easily have float powers. It uses llvms intrinsics.
The pow implementation for all num types uses the exponentiation by
square.
Fixes bug #11499
This commit uniforms the short title of modules provided by libstd,
in order to make their roles more explicit when glancing at the index.
